Yeah? So you think Congress has the right to exceed the limits of the Commerce Clause when it's something you agree with? That's nice to know. It completely contradicts the stated mission of FreeRepublic, which states the following:

"We at Free Republic are determined to return the Constitution to its rightful place as the Supreme Law of the land as the Founders intended."

"A return to a strictly Constitutional form of federal government will automatically repeal and abolish all unconstitutional federal involvement in states issues such as: crime, health, education, welfare and the environment. The Tenth Amendment will again be in effect, which will bar all federal attempts at legislating social issues. This will also require that social programs such as Social Security, welfare and Medicare be repealed. So too, will most federal subsidies."

I think I fit in just fine here.

P.S. -- do you support the Brady Bill and the federal Assault Weapons Ban? I do not. Those blatantly anti-gun pieces of legislation were passed by Congress using the same proposed authority (the Commerce Clause).

ROFL! Rather presumptuous, don’t you think? *All* I said was, I have you figured out. Clearly you’re on a mission... have fun.
